About “The Wake”

A Wake is a tradition practiced when someone close has passed away. Friends and family are invited to look over the dead body and they console each other in their grief with prayer and support. With this in mind, Billy Wood’s song, the Wake, is a rather ironic twist on this ceremony. Instead of dwelling on all pleasant memories, he paints unflattering pictures of drug abuse, crime, poverty, loss and dashed opportunities
